to fully approve Indiana's CAIR SIP. This will allow a transition from 
an abbreviated SIP with limited approval to a full SIP with full 
approval under which the various CAIR implementation provisions would 
be governed by State rules rather than Federal Implementation Plan 
(FIP) rules. This action results in the withdrawal of the Indiana CAIR

proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any 
parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this 
time. Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment, 
paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed 
from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions 
of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment. For
